What people say about Paul E.

November 2025

I spent a full day of advanced driver training with Paul, and it was genuinely one of the most valuable experiences I’ve had behind the wheel. Even in a single day, his depth of knowledge, professionalism, and calm teaching style made a lasting impact. Paul tailored the entire session to suit my close protection role, focusing on the specific skills required for chauffeur and evasive driving. His instruction was clear, precise, and highly relevant to real-world situations, combining advanced techniques with practical safety awareness and vehicle control. What impressed me most was how Paul seamlessly adapted his training to my professional needs, ensuring every exercise had a clear purpose and practical benefit. His feedback was insightful and encouraging, helping me refine both my precision and decision-making on the road. By the end of the day, I felt significantly more confident, composed, and technically capable with a stronger understanding of how to apply advanced driving principles in a protection and chauffeuring context. I’d highly recommend Paul to anyone looking to elevate their driving skills, especially those in professional or security-related driving roles.

Paul is an outstanding tutor, as well as an absolute gentleman, with the patience of a saint. The DMAP 3 (Advanced) course is an incredibly valuable day that has tangibly enhanced my driving abilities, awareness, control and safety. I'd go so far as to say that this level of guidance should be mandatory / a part of the driving test curriculum for the safety of all road users. Highly recommended.
